Career
Being an artist and wanting to be a mother has helped me
figure out my career goals. Bringing together my love of art and my goal of
helping children develop their own passion has helped me realize I wanted to be
an art teacher. I want to help students find their own passion and opening
their minds to the creativity that only art can bring. Being an artist has not
only shaped my entire personality and is the core of who I am, but it has
influenced my future in so many different ways. My artwork interacts with every
aspect of who I am, and is part of every community I am part of.
Family

| AOII sisters: Me and my littles |
While I love my family, my real family lies here in
Kentucky. While I have one family with the person I love, my sisterhood has
become my home away from home. Being in Alpha Omicron Pi has shaped my life and
given me the greatest family I’ve ever had. But within the sisterhood I have my
own family, I have a big sister who has always been there for me, and two
little sisters who have become so important to me. They have become a family
with me, and helped me grow and develop into a better person. Alpha Omicron Pi
has been one of the greatest communities I’ve ever been a part of.
Entertainment

My entertainment has shaped my identity entirely, because my
entertainment is focused around my artwork. My art has been my form of
entertainment, everything else basically coming second. While I also enjoy
reading, TV, and singing, drawing and painting have been the activities that
shaped who I am. Being an artist has allowed me to find a community in college
with the other art students. It’s given me a special gift that I can contribute
to my sorority and my family, and it’s given me the core of my career. Art is
my passion and has shaped every part of who I am.
